Bug Description

When migrating to v5, self-referential content types related via a module do not migrate correctly.

I have a content type (theme) that includes a relation to itself through a module (highlight).
After migration, the relation between published and draft documents is incomplete:

• In the database, the published document retains one relation (as expected).
• However, the (unpublished) document has no relation.

Observation

• I have two themes from v4, which is correct.

  

• In themes_cmps, the highlight module correctly connects to all themes.

  

• In components_modules_highlights, four components exist — as expected.

  

• The problem appears in components_modules_highlights_theme_lnk:
  there is no link to highlight with ID 3, which causes the relation issue.

  

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a new v4 Strapi project
2. Create a content type with a module that has a relation to that content type
3. Create an entry that has a relation to itself in the module
4. Migrate to v5, open the content type again
5. The relation has disappeared

Expected Behavior

During migration, relations between self-referential content types should be preserved for both published and draft documents.
